The three major points from the book are that HAES is one extreme, should focus more on developing healthy habits, & reads like a religion.

3.5/5 stars. Because I'm a Christian, I would recommend this guide with one caution: LaRocca's perspective is counter to Christianity.

I wouldn't recommend this book for eating disorder recovery. Eat with Joy is less about eating disorders and more the world's food problems.

Living Beyond Your Feelings by Joyce Meyer is for older Christian woman. If that doesn't fit you, I wouldn't recommend this book.

Bulimia Nervosa (BN) is binge eating, followed by purging. Purging is anything that overcompensates for the food consumed.

After binge eating, normal eating doesn’t seem possible anymore. The obvious solution may be to stop the extremes, but how?

I read this eating disorder book a few years ago, and I ate it up. No pun intended. I would recommend Food: The Good Girl's Drug.
